He was one of the founding fathers of the Purple People Eaters...the gang of superstar defenders that helped turn the Minnesota Vikings from hopeless expansion losers to perennial Super Bowl contenders! Carl Eller was a University of Minnesota hometown star who continued his mastery in Minneapolis for 15 more years, and when all was said and one, headed to Canton and the Hall of Fame as one of the greatest linemen to ever play the game.

Published in poster size exclusively for SportsPosterWarehouse.com as part of our NFL Legends series, this black-and-white beauty harkens back to the glory days of football, when the Vikings and the Purple People Eaters thrilled the upper midwest for a generation. With amazing vintage 1960s action from Wrigley Field in Chicago, during a Vikings-Bears grudge match, it features the giant Eller flying headlong in the mud to bring down none other than the great Gale Sayers. Untainted by distracting graphics or gaudy titling, printed on high-quality photographic stock, and affixed with an official NFL Properties serialized hologram, this brilliant piece will bring back a flood of memories with every glance, and brighten up the wall of any true Vikings fan! A rare beauty you will NEVER find in stores...
